Petersen hates the name 'Husky Nation'. Our uncreative fanbase responds

Petersen's right. Husky Nation sounds boring and uninspiring.

So many other schools have similar sounding nicknames for their fanbases and they all suck. So during his chat at the Seattle Times, he (probably the Times, eager to replace all the traffic that left after Condotta left because I doubt Petersen cares what we call ourselves) asked some fans to give out some other names for us to toy around with.

You can tell from the results that no one at UW graduated in marketing and that we're all still stroking our dicks from the Seahawks SB. The unfortunate finalists are:

Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign

Yeah, you can already cross off anyone with Legion or 12th. Fuck those.

Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign

Purple Reign reminds me too much of Prince and it's also the name of a female superhero in Seattle who married Phoenix Jones. She looks like Mileena from Mortal Kombat. And Planet Husky sounds idiotic.

Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign


So is the Dawg Pack okay with you guys? Seems to be the one everyone's voting for at the ST.
 
I fucking hate xxxxxx-nation. The first time I heard it was OSU calling themselves Beaver Nation and I remember thinking I'm glad UW fans don't do that because it's god damned stupid and annoying and makes me hate people. Why have any name? Husky fan works.

I vote for The 12th Dawg because I love AoG.
 
Hello Dawg Fans…

Free pub since that was my handle on the ST blog. Haven't been to many games since Lou retired but his "Hello Dawg Fans" before the game was one of the game day experiences I absolutely loved.

Of the ones on the list, have to go with Dawg Pack, I know the bb team had but this name is fitting. Encompasses our name and not many animals want to be near or walk into a pack of dogs.

Me hate people? It's still plagiarism when you change a word. That would have slipped past someone slow, I guess imitation is the best form of flattery boozer head.
